More details to this question:
My aunt asked me to do her a favor and loan her daughter money to buy an car I told her that her daughter already owed me money from a loan and the only way I will loan her more money is if she see to it that her daughter pays me back all my money she agreed that she will make sure she pays me and in fact said she would hold on to the money and in the event that the car deal didn't go through that she would return my money I agreed and took the money to her instead of her keeping the Monday as said she gave the money to her daughter the daughter spent the money but not on a car it's been a year and no one has paid me any money I have tried several times to make arrangements with the daughter to repay me but she haven't ive even asked her to work the money off by doin my daughters hair cause she is a stylist and still nothing I want to take it to small claims but it unsure who to sue? Who holds responsibility in this matter the aunt or the daughter?

Law school 101 - sue everybody who might possibly be responsible! It seems to me that the aunt and her daughter are both responsible. The aunt breached her contract with you to hold on to the money and only disburse it when and if the daughter's car deal went through. The daughter breached her agreement with you by not repaying the loan and by using the money for something other than a car.
